If someone unironically wore gloves like that I would bully them without hesitation.

Those aren’t gloves, they’re just weirdly soft knuckle dusters.

Reminder than most other browsers are based on chromium, and Google can probably break ad blockers on them if they want to.

I went back to FireFox way back when the announcement of V3 killing adblockers in chromium first was made. I could go without everything else a browser offers, as long as it has ad blocking.

I legit want AR glasses for the same thing; to block ads IRL.

I actually really like the AR glasses idea. That said, They need to be open source and de-spookified, and there needs to be some kind of regulation that they can’t store or transmit images without first displaying a recording indicator.

It’s probably not going to happen like that, though, so I’m not mad existing ones have such bad battery lives.

Literally just gave up brave for Firefox two weeks ago just for that reason even though brave isn’t supposedly gonna be affected. I have no doubt Google might deliberately just break chromium one day once and for all.

Firefox or Vivaldi. I prefer Vivaldi with its built-in blocking. I also use NextDNS for DNS level blocking. Free plan is good enough for my use.
